Thanks

Can anyone see this movie?

I can't see the movie, I get this error: "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file."

New computer here, just updated Media Player a few days ago. Shouldn't be an issue.
